Product Information
Full details
The ASICS GEL-NYC 2.0 trainers are designed for adult males seeking a blend of heritage running aesthetics and modern performance comfort. Their key benefit lies in the enhanced cushioning and support system, offering a lighter and more comfortable feel than previous versions. A potential consideration is that their style might lean more towards athletic or casual wear rather than formal occasions. This model features a breathable mesh upper with supportive leather overlays, integrated TRUSSTIC™ support units for stability, signature GEL™ technology for shock absorption, and FF BLAST™ PLUS cushioning for a responsive ride, all atop a durable rubber outsole.

FAQs
What is the primary difference between the GEL-NYC™ 2.0 and the original GEL-NYC™?
The GEL-NYC™ 2.0 features an updated midsole formation with FF BLAST™ PLUS cushioning, creating a lighter and more comfortable feel compared to the first version.
Are these shoes suitable for long-distance running?
While they offer good cushioning and comfort for daily wear and light activities, they are primarily designed for casual wear and heritage running-inspired style rather than intense, long-distance competitive running.
How do I clean the mesh and leather parts?
Use a soft, damp cloth for cleaning. Avoid harsh chemicals. For leather, a conditioner can help maintain its condition.
Can I put these shoes in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Hand washing with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method to preserve the materials and construction.
What does the TRUSSTIC™ support unit do?
The TRUSSTIC™ support unit is integrated into the midsole to provide torsional stability, helping to control pronation and guide the foot's natural motion.
What size range is available?
These trainers are available in various UK adult male sizes. Please refer to the product listing for specific size availability.
How should I store my GEL-NYC 2.0 trainers when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain their color and material integrity. Avoid storing them in damp conditions.
Troubleshooting
Reduced cushioning effect
Over time, cushioning can compress. Ensure the shoes are not excessively worn. If performance has significantly degraded, consider replacement.
Squeaking noise from shoes
This can sometimes occur due to friction between shoe components or moisture. Ensure insoles are dry and properly seated. If the noise persists, a small amount of talcum powder under the insole might help.
Discomfort or rubbing
Ensure you have the correct size and fit. Break-in periods vary; wear them for short durations initially. Check for any internal seams or debris causing irritation.

Care Instructions:
- Upper: Gently clean the mesh and leather areas with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that could damage the materials. For leather overlays, a leather conditioner can be used periodically to maintain suppleness.
